33 million year old Myotis (Chiroptera, Vespertilionidae) and the rapid global radiation of modern bats

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
The bat genus Myotis is represented by 120+ living species and 40+ extinct species and is found on every continent except Antarctica. The time of divergence of Myotis has been contentious as has the time and place of origin of its encompassing group the ...

The dynamics of cave roost use by bats in the central Himalayas of Nepal: implications for conservation

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
Cave use by bats in the central Himalayas shows elevational and seasonal patterning wherein species richness is higher in early spring compared to mid‐winter. The species that occupy these systems prefer a warmer microclimate as winter progresses to spring (i.e., from hibernation phase to reproduction phase).

Morphology and development of the baculum in harbour seals (Phoca vitulina)

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
This study examines the ontogenetic changes in the morphology of the penis bone in the harbour seal, focusing on the implications for sexual maturity and reproductive function. A large comparative dataset of approx. 300 genital bones from 1 year to over 20 years of age was used for analyses.

Comparative phylogeography of bamboo bats of the genus Tylonycteris (Chiroptera, Vespertilionidae) in Southeast Asia

open access: yes, 2017
In Southeast Asia, bats of the genus Tylonycteris Peters, 1872 have traditionally been classified into two wide-ranging species, T. pachypus (Temminck, 1840) and T. robustula Thomas, 1915.

Livestock abundance predicts vampire bat demography, immune profiles, and bacterial infection risk [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Human activities create novel food resources that can alter wildlife–pathogen interactions. If resources amplify or dampen, pathogen transmission probably depends on both host ecology and pathogen biology, but studies that measure responses to ...

Use of synanthropic roosts by bats in Europe and North America

open access: yesMammal Review, EarlyView.
Although bats often use buildings for roosting, the true proportion of their populations roosting in buildings is not known. Based on review of radio‐tracking studies, we found that 2× more species and 17× times higher proportion of populations use SRs in Europe than in North America, respectively.

Forest and Isolation Determine Bat Species Richness on Mediterranean Islands: Conservation Implications

open access: yesMammal Review, EarlyView.
Bat species richness on Mediterranean islands is significantly influenced by forest cover and island isolation. These findings underscore the need to incorporate landscape composition and isolation into conservation strategies, emphasising the critical role of forest protection in preserving bat diversity in insular ecosystems.
